Apple's going to use the event to show how its products can be used positively within the education sector, as today's digital generation are already fluent in the use of digital devices.

"Young people already use mobile technology in almost every aspect of their daily lives – and now it’s the time for education to catch up," the exhibition organisers explained in a press release.

A strong line-up of topic-led debates will further explore the opportunities of the emerging educational space: who will supply education in the 21st Century? Will harnessing such technologies lead to control or empowerment?

Samsung and T-Mobile will also be at the show, in their attempt to prove their solutions can also assist in learning.
